CaribbeanCrush Posted August 12, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2010 On our last two cruises we have had an issue with the intercom in our cabin. When we turn it on we can hear the music that they pipe through, but we haven't been able to hear the annoucements from the captain or CD. Are we doing something wrong?

jst4fun715 Posted August 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 12, 2010 From what I understand, it is set up so that you DON'T hear the announcements in your cabin unless it is an emergency. We never hear the announcements either. Usually have to open the cabin door to hear them in the hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogimax Posted August 12, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Usually have to open the cabin door to hear them in the hall. We've had the same experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted August 12, 2010 #5 Share Posted August 12, 2010 That's right....only emergencies are broadcast directly into your cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ship2Shore Posted August 12, 2010 #6 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I'd rather be able to hear the announcements in-room and have the option to shut them off if desired. Usually by the time you realize there is an announcement it's nearly over by the time you open the cabin door to listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flbeachmom Posted August 12, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 12, 2010 You forgot BINGO announcements, I seem to hear them a lot. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually by the time you realize there is an announcement it's nearly over by the time you open the cabin door to listen. I would like that as well. I was sure that we got all the annoucements piped into our stateroom on our first cruise on the Majesty... but that was a long time ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehfl Posted September 3, 2010 #9 Share Posted September 3, 2010 The announcements are primarily stuff that you can get from reading the Compass (bingo times, etc). You won't really miss anything if you just refer to your Compass. For emergencies, you will hear it from your cabin regardless of the settings (we know from experience).

Northern Bear Posted September 3, 2010 #10 Share Posted September 3, 2010 You can usually tune your TV to a specific channel to hear announcements too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
